About the restaurant

Open for dine-in

Utsav is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning festival. An integral part of Indian culture, Indian festivals are innumerable and equally varied in origin from the Himalayan foothills to the Peninsula's tip and food plays a very prominent part of the festive events.

Each dish has its own distinctive flavor and aroma, thanks to the fresh spices that are prepared everyday for each individual dish. The blending and preparation of fresh spices is a centuries old exacting craft, which is indispensable to Indian cuisines.

About the restaurant

"At this refined, yet casual, Indian restaurant, the portions are large, the wine list is top-notch, and the ambience encourages sharing."
{Condé Nast Traveler's list of Toronto's 20 Best Restaurants}

"There’s lots of competition among the top-tier Indian restaurants in Toronto, and Pukka is at the top of that list. Punjabi curries, vindaloos, paneer, and butter chicken—all the comforting hits from the subcontinent can be found here. And while the food is uniformly excellent, it’s the wine list that’s the standout. Created by sommelier Peter Boyd, it’s a mix of thoughtfully considered bottles that pair well with whichever dish you order (ask the staff for recommendations)."

I’ve been coming to Pukka for years now but last night brought a friend . He was extremely impressed and he is tough to please. He also commented on how intimate our table felt and how delicious the Punjabi curry tasted. He was also very impressed with the fresh Naan bread. Great job as always.

Food is outstanding. It’s fresh, vibrant, innovative, and delicious! Service is professional and friendly. It was a little quiet for a Saturday night (might have been due to the chilly weather), I’m shocked this place isn’t packed all the time. This is the second time we have eaten there and we will absolutely be returning again soon!
